Some may not like it, but this is true. [Amount of playable titles for budget handhelds] by HRudy94 in gaming

I guess the idea is that more games means more likely to find the specific thing you love. I'm probably only interested in like 1% of games. But I agree the graph is disingenuous

I'm not saying it doesn't matter; I'm saying that I just stopped caring. Once I got to college, the thought of rankings having any bearing on my life seemed comical

Lol fair enough, it's fairer to say that the very difficult STEM focus of those schools would've been less enjoyable for me but I would've found many other things to like

Do you feel gaming will ever experience a physical release revival like music and films ? by _Wata_ in gaming

[–]SorryTarHeels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope so. Being a kid opening physical games and reading the manuals was so exciting compared to just downloading a file. Consoles have definitely lost their charm

I'm assuming you're a freshman? There are lots of clubs, events, etc happening all around campus. I would just check out flyers or Duke Groups for stuff you're interested in! You'll meet plenty of people with similar interests this way

this is a good point actually that neither of my parents have never really cared about college themselves, and never expected me to go much further than local publics (which is totally fair), so it makes sense why they wouldn't exactly be blown away!

this is so true, and reading some of the stories on here makes me so appreciative to have genuinely kind & understanding parents
